Chapter 95 - Dark-Robed Ripper (1/2)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Qin Feng reckoned he should not be too full of himself when he recalled that the Emperor Knight was at F8-tier.

He reminded himself not to evaluate the current situation based on his past experience as an A-tier warrior. Emperor Knights were a formidable foe that was still too difficult for him at his present state.

Qin Feng loosened up a little after he thought it through. ‘Getting stronger should be my priority now.’

He worked relentlessly the next few days to exterminate as many F-tier zombies as possible. Nonetheless, the invasion did not show signs of slowing down.

Qin Feng had indeed become stronger. He was currently as lethal as an E-tier fighter. Both the number of zombies killed and his points increased exponentially as the days went by.

On the other hand, the Dark-Robed Rippers seemed to have become equally desperate. The more zombies the humans killed, the more frequent the spatial rift appeared. The humans and the beasts were locked in a seesaw battle.

In the past few days, not only the zombies but the human force had also suffered considerable loss. A handful of ability users had fallen in the hands of the enemy. Chengyang city was able to hold only because they had hauled in large reinforcements from other colonies. Besides, the authorities had covered up the number of actual casualties, thus not many knew that they had already lost close to four hundred comrades.

Qin Feng was aware of the actual situation. Hence, other than essential rest, he had been hunting non-stop up at Zimu Mountains. His point reward was a whopping 80,000 credits now, which far exceeded the rest of the troop.

At the mountains, Qin Feng leisurely beheaded another fiery zombie in front of him.

The core inside the zombie skull was an ability core. After Qin Feng had absorbed it, the core granted him a small number of fire runes.

Unfortunately, even with the great numbers of runes, Qin Feng still found it difficult to enhance his consciousness.

He could not do anything about it. Most of the dark-robed ent.i.ties had been killed by him and he had run out of ingredients to power up his consciousness.

“Why didn’t the Ripper let more dark-robed ent.i.ties slip through?” Qin Feng murmured.

He actually understood why. Ability users that could manipulate runes were a rare breed. If it were uncommon among the human race, then it should also be the case for other species. The dark-robed ent.i.ties were probably a rare and valuable a.s.set in their world as well.

Qin Feng chuckled and was suddenly alerted. A dark-robed ent.i.ty had just appeared not very far ahead.

“Speaking of the devil!” Qin Feng dashed up to the beast quickly.

Bai Li sensed the anomaly and cautioned her master. “Dear, be careful. It’s a beast king.”

Bai Li had learned about the human cla.s.sification of beasts after mingling in the society for a while now. The dark-robed ent.i.ty in front of them was not the common beast Qin Feng thought it was.

Qin Feng was startled. “The Dark-Robed Ripper?”

The moment he made out the enemy’s ident.i.ty, it was already das.h.i.+ng toward him.

Rawr!

The Ripper revealed its look. Different from the black skeleton and skull usually seen on common dark-robed ent.i.ties, the Ripper’s face was scarlet. It looked exactly like a skinless creature with its flesh exposed. There were no whites in its eyes, which made the creature both peculiar and hideous.

He seemed to have found out that the culprit behind its underlings’ ma.s.sacre was the human in front of it. The beast raised its arm and rays of dark bands soon covered Qin Feng.

‘Dark laser?’ Qin Feng knew exactly what those rays were. The other dark-robed ent.i.ties had used the same trick on him before but since he had absorbed the h.e.l.l stone, Qin Feng was immune to all types of dark ability.

However, Qin Feng decided it was best not to expose his ability with so many surveillance drones flying around.

Unfortunately, the Ripper’s dark ray traveled too fast and shrouded a huge area owing to the abundant dark element surrounding them. It was simply not possible to evade them all.

‘You are not the only one with a laser!’ Qin Feng reacted calmly and raised his fingers. However, the beam coming out from it was not the dark laser but a blazing spark.
